From a pack of 52 cars all kings and queens are removed. Remaining cards are well shuffled and a card is drawn. What is the probability that it is a Red Jack ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
A standard deck of cards contains 4 kings and 4 queens.
Total kings and queens = 4 (kings) + 4 (queens) = 8 cards.
Find the number of remaining cards after removing the kings and queens:
Initially, there are 52 cards in total.
After removing 8 cards (kings and queens), the remaining number of cards is: 52−8=44 cards
Total number of red Jacks = 2
So, the probability that it is a Red Jack = \(\frac{2}{44}\) = $\frac{1}{22}$
